The American Agric , it'A says
"The excellence ck wheat flour de
pends rhi on the management of the
gr ' - Between the time of ripening and
grinding. The common way of treating
buckwheat effectually,prevents making
good flour, it being allowed to remain in
the swath for several weeks, when it
should never be suffered to lie longer than
a day or two, and it is decidedly better
for the gfain to rake it and set it on end,
as fast as it is cradled. Much less grain
will be wasted by shelling out; the straw
will cure and dry out sooner, and make
better fodder; the crop will be ready for
threshing or housing in less time; and
the grain will yield a much better quality
of flour. It is especially injurious to the
grain to be exposeil to storms before It is
set up, for dirt is spattered all over the
grain, by the falling of large rain drops.
This makes - the flour dark-colored and
gritty. Wetting and drying the grain
several times, destroys the life of the
flour. It never will be as white, nor
make as good cakes, but will be sticky
and the cakes clammy like the flour of
sprouted wheat."
Oa wit_o_ol
The. secret of making good butter is
leanliness and thoroughness, and the
tits for the most profitable exercise of
the a of butter-making is June. • The
grass is . sundant, the cows in full milk,
the weathe favorable. The milk should
not be kept t. : cool, though thisi is rarely
a fault iudairle. It is'enough if it be
kept as cool as s • deg. Fahrenheit,
though 55 deg. Is not so cool. Cream
will rise about this te serature better
than any other, and the s e is best at
which to churn. Milk sho. d stand
where the air is sweet and fres • odors
from the kitchen or from the stab or
odors of any kind, indeed, except that 'f
fresh air, should be carefully excluded.
Stone floors are desirable, for these can
be kept constantly moist and so much
cooler than others, and the air ought to
circulate freely over and under the pans.
Shallow pans are better than deep ones.
Work out the buttermilk without touch
ing the l hatids to the butter, using as little
water as possible, or none at all. If the
buttermilk is all out, and with 'it all the
milk, sugar and cheesy portions of the
milk, butter will keep with very little
salt. The more imperfect the working,
the more salt is required. fn keeping
cream several days, put it where the tem
perature will be uniform and cool, and
stir if more is misled.
CIMINO HENS OF szrruca.
A writer in the New England .Ftsrmey
says that he cured his hens from sitting
by shutting them up in a tub having an
inch or two of water on the bottom. He
keeps them there during the day and puts
them on the roost at night. If not cured
the first day he treats them to the "water
cure" another day, when they will be
glad to stand on their feet.
ONIONS AND POULTRY.
Pcarcely too much can be said in praise
of onions for fowls.- They seem to be a
preventive and remedy for various disea
ses to which domestic fowls are liable.—
For gapes and inflammation of the throat,
eyes and head, onions are almost a spe
cific. They should be finely choPpede—

Proverbs.—Don't awop with your re
lashuns unless you eau afford to give
them the big end of the trade.
Marry young, and if circumstances re
quire it, often.
If you can't git good clothes and edica
tion too, git the clothes.
Say "Bow are you?" to everybody.
Cultivate modesty, but keep a good
stock of impudence on hand.
Be charitable; three-penny cent pieces
were made on purpose.
It costs more to borrow than it does

If a man flatters you, you can kalke
late he is a rogue, or you are a fule.
Keep both eyes open but don't see

If you itch for fame, go into a grave

stone.

then addressed the assemblage. He said
their previous kindness had hardly left
life enough in him to enable him to ad
dress them at length. He was sure that
the men who had come here from all sec
tions of the State would not be disap
pointed if he addressed them briefly. The
harvest was over, and for its abundance
they should thank God. But there was
another harvest to be reaped amid the
frosts of October, when they were to be
the reapers, and it would then be seen
whether they had strength enough to cut
down the weeds of secession and rebellion
everywhere growing around them.—
(Cheers.) Were they prepared to enter
upon a canvass like that now opening ?
He could ask the whole State this ques
tion, as every section of ft was represent
ed in those he saw around this Democrat
ic altar. ' Had they come here swayed by
one purpose, that after all that had been
expended in war, the Constitution and
the-Union should be restored? (Cries of
"yes" and cheers.) The war is over.
The armies of the South have melted
away like snow before the sun: There
ought to be peace, but why was it that
when open war was over, peace had not
followed? The South had been,obedie - nt
to the Cimstitutioh since, had chosch
representatives and wished peace, but
because they would not bow the knee to
New England fanaticism, they were kept
under the heel of despotism.. (Groans
for the Radicals.' A voice, "They never
will.") - •
No,. the speaker said, and they never
ought'. (Cheers.) It was not the Delnoci
racy who kept the Union divided, but a
Radical faction in Congress, who pro
posed terms which honorable men could
not accept. The conservative men of all
parties were united against this faction,
and in favor of a restored Union. (Loud
cheers.) The question to be decided this
fall was, Whether there should be peace
or perpetual war.
The Democracy had.throughout its en-,
tire history been a party eminently cath;
one, for its sympathies extended over
every inch of land covered by the flag of
a common Union. This being so, the
party would be recrant to every sense of
duty, if in this, the direst hour of the-na
tion's necessity, it was not willing to
strike hands and make plighted faith
over the common labor of a common
country with any man or set of Alen who
were willing to preserve it. That had
been the mission of the Democratic par
ty, and the principle upon which it was
founded, and on that principle, by the
grace of God and the virtue of the people,
it would continue to exist.
The speaker said, further, that the po
sition he occupied, by the voice of the,
Democracy of the State, was. one so full'
of responsibility and care that, did he not
know that throughout the length and
breadth of this Commonwealth there was
not the heart of asingle Democrat which
did not beat in unison with his own, and
.who would not in the hour of trial and
danger, stand by him to 'the bitter end,
he would shrink from the place. But he'
had been made the candidate by the tin
bought, unsolicited and free, and almost
unanimous choice of the Democracy of
the State. He had no political history
that was not recorded; his history as a
politician was the history of the State for
the last six years, anti lie would not to
day alter a line or blot out ii. particle of
it. (Loud cheers.) He might have been
mistaken ' ,but if so it was an honest mis
take, and he challenged any one who did
not believe in his course to meet him be
fore the people and discuss it. (Cheers.) .
It was true he had never bent the knee
to power, and that in the Senate of Penn
sylvania he had nevey'qualled before the
Abolition majority (loud cheers) ; and
for this he believed / the people were sup
porting him to-day.• He had not intend
ed to speak at length, however; and would
ive way for others.
Ir. Clymer, amid great enthusiasm,
ret ed.
NTGOMERY BLAIR'S SPEECH.
Mr. BI: • was received enthusiastically.
He felt ha )3 , in being in old Berks to
catch the in: .Iration of her Democracy.
He was prout here rene•.v his Demo
cratic alliance, u =n the platform of the
Constitution anc t Union. (Cheers.)
The platform now me s something, for
after blood and war it w g proper to ask
whether mere fartionists s • ould keep the
country divided for the sa • of party.
That is the only issue. Thu. 11 often
differing with the Democracy, vet he
could not reproach them. They oved
the Union and the Constitution and e
government, and would defend them :t
whatever cost. (Cheers.) It was a mos
cheering spectacle to him' to witness
Democratic devotion to the Government ;
for the last administration, of which he
was a memNer, had treated its opponents
often harshly and unjustifiably, and yet
Democrats poured out freely their blood
and treasure to save the Union. He said
the Radicals wanted to govern the coun
try by force ,• for if they carried the elec
tions this fall, Andrew Johnson would be
impeached and turned out, and a man of
their own choice made President. (In
dignation.)
They meant to govern thir
ty-six Statea by just as many as they
thought proper to admit to represent:.
tion. The result would be tivo Presi
dents and two Congresses, because the
Democracy, faithful to the Constitution,
will recognize the Southern members.
He told this to one of the leading Radi
cals in Washington, when one turned to
him and said: 'Yes, and we will have
von just where we have Jeff. Davis now,"
his eyes flashing angrily as he spoke it.
This spirit, said Mr. Blair, is hurrying
the country Into a new rebellion, in
which the battle-fields will he among
you. (A voice—" Let it come.") Mr.
Blair said no, he did not want to see it,
but counsel your Radical friends and let
them see what this lust of dominion in
their party is leading us to. He reviewed
the doctrine of secession, claiming that,
while not expressed in words, yet the
sense and meaning of the Constitution
were averse to It. The new faugled Con
stitution the Radicals were putting upon
the country was a contrivance by which
Southern uegroes were to be equalized
with the whites, or that a negro vote in
South Carolina would balance a 'white
man's vote in Pennsylvania. Negro suf
frage was an absurdity, and Jefferson
had left it on record in his own hand
writing that he never contemplated the
intermingling of the races. It was mere
political clap-trap, nothing more. The
Radicals were afraid that if the South
was admitted they would vote with the
Democracy and elect Grant President, or
perhaps McClellan. (Great cheers.) There
was not a thief in the United States who
was not a Radical. During the course of
his speech, Mr. Blair eloquently alluded
to McClellan's patriotism, saying he
knew that Lincoln, to the last, joined
with him in that opinion. Every allu
sion to McClellan's name was greeted en
thusiastically. The whole tenor of the
speech indicated fears of serious trouble,
owing to the Radicai-hatred of the South.'
SPEECH OF HON. GEO. H. PENDLETON.
After Mr. Blair's speech, Hon. George
H. Pendleton was introduced, and re.
ceived an ovation. The enthusiasm was
remarkable. For nearly ten minutes
cheer upon cheer greeted the dlistingithilt
§4 Ohioan;
48TH YEAR.-NO. 44.
Mr. Pendleton commenced by enloe'lz"
ing the Democratic party, denying that
it was dead and contending that so long
as the government shall exist in this
country it will maintain its vigor. It
was a party of the people against the
power of confederation, against consoli
dation. Ho then reviewed the early his
tory of the government, showing that the
party of confederation stood then as the
Democratic party stood to-day. He in
sisted that the Southern States were in
the Union, and that the grand question
was whether they should be represented
in Congress. In this matter the Democ
racy and the President entirely agree.
He Ulm considered the question, why
should not these States be represented?
arguing it et some length. He asserted
that the Radical leaders hail from the
start been opposed to the Union. Thad
deus Stevens has said in his hurry", that
with his consent the 'Union never should
be restored. They hated our form of gov
ernment, and knew the most effective
stab they could give it would be to attempt
to govern one-half
.of the country. He
then took up the question of the constitu
tional amendment, believing that, if the
Southern States were entitled to represen
tation, it was superfluous, as its adoption
was exacted as a condition of represen
tation, and if they were not so entitled,
its adoption could not confer that right.
Mr. Pendleton's speeeb will rank with
the fairest productional or hb3 brilliant
mind.
Resolutions Adopted by the
.Iteadtnit
Maw; Convention.
Rrßolred, P y the Democracy of Eastern
and Central Pennsylvania, in Mass Con
vention assembled : That the contest up
on which we are now entering is simply,
whether the Federal Union under the
Constitution as adopted and construed by
its illustrious authors, with the reserved
rights of the States unimpaired, shall
continue to be our form of government,
or whether we shall have forced 'upon us
by Congressional usurpation and revolu
tionary action a central consolidated gov
ernment, bound by no constitutional re
straints, in which the liberties of the
people would be at the mercy of a - bare
majority of Congress, controlled by a self
constituted and irresponsible central di
rectory.
lesoire• , That the Democratic party
are now, as ever, the only true Union
party .of the land; that we point with
pride to the unselfish and untiring efforts
made by all Democrats and Conservatives
in and out of Congress to preserve the
Union before the war commenced by con
ciliation and compromise, the only means
by which it watt formed and without
which it will never be more than a name;
that the refusal of the Republican party
to yield their partizan preludicester the
sake of Peace and Union, was the imme
diate cause of the war, and posterity will
hold them responsible. '
Resolved, That we will hold all the de
partments of the government of the Uni
ted States to its official and solemn decla
ration, that the war was not proseduted
for any purpose of 'conquest or subjuga
tion, but to maintain the supremacy of
the Constitution, and tzi, preserve the
Union, with all the dignity, equality and
rights of the several States unimpaired ;
that the war having ended by the surren
der bf the rebel armies the people of the
South are subject only to such • petTalt les
as the Constitution of our common coun
try and the laws passed in pursuanee of
it ,may prescribe, and are entitled to ail
the rights which that Constitution en
sures to all the people of all the States.
Resolved, That the Federal Union is
composed of thirty-six States; that under
the Constitution each State is entitled to
an equal representation in the Senate and
to its proper representation to thelowns
House; that the Constitution is the Su
preme law of the land ; that tile President
is sworn to enforce the laws, and that we
call upon him, in the name of an outraged.
and `violated Constitution and an imper
illedUnion, to make the Congress what
the Constitution requires it to be—the
representative body of the whole people.
Resolved, That we denounce the pro
ceedings of the Radical majority in the
so-called Congreso as lawless and revolu
tionary, and intended by its leaders to
utterly subvert and destroy our wise and
beniticent system of government, and to
establish in its 'place a consolidated des
potism, controlled by the worst spirit of
New England fanaticism.
Resolved, That we tender to President
Johnson our hearty thanks for his bold
and steadfast determination to restore the
Union of our fathers, "In its original pu
rity," and we adjure him by the memo
ry of the immortal Jackson, to conyince
the Radical disunionists by word' and
deed, that the "Federal Union must and
shall be preserved."
cso/erd, That we are opposed to ne
gr suffrage, believing that the white
men America are able to govern them
selves, —ithout the aid of an inferior-race,
and thatwe disapprove of the amend
ment to th Constitution, lately proposed
by the so-cal Congress, it being noth- -
ing but the offs of a reward to the States
for granting negri uffrage, and the threat
of a punishment in ise of refusal
Resolved, That the. ldiers whofought
for the Union and the Constitution de
serve well of the countr3 ar the
repeated declaration by the 7 that
the rebellion could not liavi tub
clued
without the aid of black is a,
rosy and wanton insult to tl: and
'allant white soldiers of America, W ieli
they well know how to resent at the po s
n iix
.
Resolved, That the sympathies of tht,
Democracy are now, as they have ever
been, with our brave brothers of the Em
raid Isle in their gallant efforts to free
heir native land from the foul tyranny
of England ; and that we owe nothing to
he English government which should
prevent us from repealing or modifying
the neutrality laws so as to give the Irish
fair play, which is all they ask. • I
Resolved, That we endorse and reaffirm
the platform of principles adopted by the
Democratic State Convention,-at Harris
burg, on the sth of March last; and we
preseet with pride to the Democratic and
Conservative citizens of Pennsylvania,
our worthy candidate for Governor, Hon.
Hiester Clymer. He answers, in an emi
nent degree, tile requirements of Jeffer
son ; he is honest ; he is capable and be
is faithful. The most malignant of his
political enemies can find no spot on his
fair fame; and to the slanders anal mis
representations of Radical disunionists,
we answer that lie is how, as he has al
ways been and under all circumstances,
in favor of the Union of our fathers—a
union of white men.
Resolved, That the Tariff men of Penn
sylvania may see by the 'votes of Senators
Sumner and Wilson of Massachusetts,
and Foster of Connecticut, that the pro
fessions of friendship for Pennsylvania
by the Radicals of New, England, are as
sincere as their professions of regard for
the Union of the States.
Resolved, That we approve of the call
for a National Union Convention of all
the States, to meet in Philadelphia on the
14th of August next, to sustain the Presi
dent in his patriotic policy of restoration,
and we recommend the State Central
Committee to take such action as will
best advance the purpose of the call.

A Traitor Sileneed.—Herschell ,V.
Johnson WAS recently talking very blat
ant treason, In the presence of sundry
gentlemen. One of them finally Inter
rupted him and told him ho could not
talk so In Washington. Mr., Johnson
said that he had been pardoned by the
President, and he knew of no power
which could prevent him from express
ing his sentiments. The gentleman re
plied that he did know of a power which
could prevent him, namely : the presence
nd strength of a loyal man who would
n't tolerate the utterance of treason In
his\prasence. Hhortly afterward Mr.
Johnxson privately inquired the name
